Politics: Business As Usual

This one called that one a crook;
That one called this one a dud.
Neither could be clearly seen,
Once they were done slinging mud.

Awash in a big sea of blood
Trump's Cash Cow was chewing its cud
Kim Jong-Un laughed,
"Don't be so daft!
You know it was only a dud!"

Pub Or Tea

A teenage girl defied her ma
And went downtown without her bra
But no boys were there
And girls did not care
What a dud thrill "Life in the Raw"!

Premium Member A Cat Named Bud

There once was a cat named Bud,
Who thought he was such a stud;
Until a vet trip,
They gave him a snip,
Now Bud's not a stud but a dud.

avid goldbricker
never takes initiative
a dud on the job
has to be given a list
hourly some days
never completes it either
he’s a lazy lay-about

Premium Member A Bloody Good Deal

How could a corpse like me ask for more
Than this faucet from the showroom floor
It may look a dud
But it cleans off blood
And came dirt cheap from the Zombie Store

Stuck Truck

My truck is stuck in the mud.
It bottomed out with a thud.
So here I sit,
Pitching a fit,
This trip was surely a dud!

Premium Member She Was An Ace He Was a Dud

I used to teach night class
For those who hated school
And dropped out

A couple came in once.
Took the pretest.
She was an ace.
He was a dud.

He beat her for this.

Premium Member Tattoo Buds

Zeekie and Mildred were buds.
Neither thought the other a dud.
Friendship so true.
They each had a tattoo
As symbols of undying love.

Lazy Cow

Lazy Cow
Dr. James E. Martin

The cow loved to chew her cud
As she lay in the cooling mud.
She was lazy you see,
As lazy as could be,
Some would even say she was a dud.

Premium Member Gonna Get That Crazy Rabbit

There was no bigger dud than Elmer Fudd
Though he fancied himself a marksman stud --
   He shot at Bugs Bunny
   Looked awkward and funny --
Thought he got him, but it was his own blood

Growing Glitch In Moscow Mitch

Growing Glitch in Moscow Mitch

What we found was a growing glitch, 
That would appear in Moscow Mitch;
Chews his cud;
Real dumb dud, 
Then it tight together he must stitch.

Premium Member Freep, the Icky Tick

There's something on my hand.
Get it off! Get it off!
It bit onto me and
I've hid it with my cuff.

Its face is buried deep.
Sucking blood! Sucking blood!
I've named it Fractious Freep
It looks like a Milk Dud.

A Flood of Poems

A Flood of Poems

My many poems  have turned into a flood,
And none of them ever did become a dud;
Tall tree  with top;
Writing can't stop;
Are like beautiful flowers that begin to bud.

Jim Horn
that went thud.

Premium Member lets rename Earth

Earth
The only planet
Not named after a Greek God or Goddess

Is it too late for a re-naming?
Or do others care?

Being an air sign,
Earth seems rather dull to me

A dud of a name
I wish Mercury had not already been taken

Premium Member Brand New Gig

There once was a character named Eli
Who really loved the fourth of July
He thought he was a stud
His fireworks were a dud
So he got a new gig and moved to Thai

Janey

janey was always making a mess 
she would go through the trash 
she was always covered in paint 
she liked to play in the mud
she needed to be blessed 
when she was looking she found a new sash 
she needed to be praying to the saints 
she always dressed like a dud

Premium Member Time Change

Time change
  Night arrives with a thud
Weird feeling, strange
  Daytime's a dud

Abrupt, precious light
  so quickly departs
Nerves tense, uptight
  upset frail hearts

Enveloped by night
  to our caves we retreat
disappointment-fueled flight
  Destination ~ Defeat

Premium Member Bugs Bunny and Elmer Fudd

Bugs Bunny 
A trickster who is always funny
What's up doc?, He loudly said
As he hid under Elmer's bed

Elmer Fudd
He is known as quite a dud
Elmer's always chasing that rabbit
Never to nab it, has become his habit

Florida Mosquitoes

Florida Mosquitoes 

A boy stayed with his grandma one summer.
Mosquitoes loved him; it was a bummer!
They liked to drink his blood.
It never was a dud.
They lined up to slurp him for dinner.

Co-written by Dane Ann Smith-Johnsen and her 6-year-old grandson who said that the mosquitoes lined up to 
eat him.

New Parent Blues

NEW   PARENT    BLUES


Cool dude used to be  - 
Did loadsa stuff in my day,
When I dared.

Used to do cool-dude deeds.
Maybe even a bit of a hipster doofus.

That personality died -
Indeed those days are gone and dead.

Cos now I’m just  somebody’s dad……….
…….Dad…….
…….Just a dud.

If It Was Not

If it was not….

If it was not by weapon,
My folks would have slain me with abhorrence.
If it was not inherently,
I would be their Desperado King for ever.
If I was not egoistic,
I would have been feasting with my broods,
If it was just,
I would have been a dud 
If it was not the distance,
I would have been alone.

Jarring

Jarring to spine,
normally ears carry it just to brain,
here the rotten voice music grain,
had climbed down,
and chilled even the spine,
it was concert,
organized perhaps in concert,
to promote a dud,
not caring that,
not even single audience would be alive,
by the time it was over,
most would have fainted or dead.

Premium Member Donald the Dud of a Dude has Dudgeon

Donald, the dud of a dude has dudgeon, Denise told me.
dungeon? I asked
she shook her head ‘no”
Dudgeon

I looked it up
Dudgeon
Ill humor
That said a lot

probably means
we will never be friends
because I have dusted the negative Neds
off of my sandals

and it feels terrific
to be free of all that naysaying
and negativity
